I posted a question yesterday on here. Despite never having been a vocal member of this community, I was rewarded with a lot of valuable advice.I wanted to voice my gratitude, so there's no other point to this post beyond that.Feel free to share how this community has helped or changed you.
- Don't use Iris because shady-thievery-mischief - Learning is costly: If you have to learn a lot to get into fullstack dev, learning a new language will compound that cost - Just pick whatever and f'n build something - artists build
Backend: 1. Node.js 2. RoR in second 3. Spring Boot/Play 4. Phoenix

Thanks all for the advice and avoiding the temptation to completely slam me (though it's warranted).
My takeaways are:
1. Don't forget about SSL, and LetsEncrypt provides a free option (will donate eventually) 2. Amazon Lightsail looks promising but be wary of any service that will not automatically cap usage once you've hit your spending threshold (apparently Google CC too, but not Digital Ocean) 3. I know there are .NET developers on here but they're a vocal minority (I work on a Windows/Ubuntu machine so it's within my reach but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

P.S. I'm working on my first chrome extension (frontend only) and might follow-up asking for advice on that.

As for twitter, I want to use it as a personal brand vehicle, that and my quora page. So while I agree that it's poison half the time, it's also a great way to engage people and discuss topics that can lead to partnerships/work in the future.
Is this something you would take advantage of?My co-founder and I are bootstrapping a platform helping mobile game developers and this might be something we're looking into building.Essentially a managed user-base, asynchronous game creation and state-management across iOS/Android.Let me know what you think.
Hi, my name is Stan Idesis and I just started playerful with my co-founder Stoyan Gaydarov. We're both ex-Zynga and our goal as a startup is to make mobile gaming better and we're beginning with the developers that make mobile gaming possible.We want to meet you guys and get an idea of what you struggle with when producing and releasing your mobile games. We want to build a product that gives...
